William Hill Launches New Multi-Play Bingo Rooms

William Hill’s bingo site has upgraded their service offerings with a brand new set of multi-play rooms. The addition should prove welcome to members of the site and bingo fans in general, a fan base that has traditionally been known for their ability to multi-task while waiting for each call.

The multi-play addition allows William Hill Bingo players to launch four games simultaneously for intense and uninterrupted gaming. The option is now available through the Variety Room and the software has been performing extremely well since its initial launch.

William Hill has also allowed for the concurrent games to host mini-games and chat options, a move that truly allows for some of the most absorbing online bingo gaming currently available. Thus far, steady traffic has not managed to slow down any of the features or the main bingo play itself. Industry observers have lauded Will Hill for their work, citing the service expansion as a great achievement and marker of exactly the kind of innovation that internet bingo should strive toward.

March 3rd saw the multi-play bingo rooms launch with excited players flocking toward the new and exciting style of internet gaming. During the first weeks of its opening, the multi-play option has been heavily used and extremely well received by a fan base enthusiastic for a more engrossing level of play.

October of 2008 saw William Hill Bingo offering up a charity event that sought to raise money for breast cancer treatment. Now the New Year has lead to the company’s announcement of the total proceeds garnered by their fundraising promotion and the overwhelming success of their efforts.

William Hill Bingo has released information from their Breast Cancer Awareness campaign, detailing the £41,000 that donations from their three-month event yielded. The company gathered charitable proceeds through a Pink Ribbon Game series with simple donation guidelines. Any William Hill Bingo player that entered into one of the appropriately designated games was automatically assisting the company in their donations. William Hill provided ten percent of their Pink Ribbon Game proceeds to the charity along with a special £10 match for eligible new users. The final sum was officially donated to the Breast Cancer Care charity in January.

Market research has provided demographic details that show bingo as a game enjoyed by a largely female audience and William Hill Bingo was clever to take advantage of their user-base in order to support a deserving charity from an ideal platform. No word has been given yet as to whether William Hill Bingo players can expect to see a return of the charity late this year but the £41,000 donation made this month makes it seem quite likely.

The British Advertising Standards Authority has marked a William Hill Bingo ad as breaching the 2005 Gambling Act’s regulations. By having their television spot labeled as socially irresponsible William Hill has put itself into a position of bad publicity. The legislature established in past years has defined a series of criteria which gaming companies must adhere to in their marketing campaigns and the company has been deemed to have broken them in their most recent media offering.

UK television has recently been running the commercial in question but probably won’t be for much longer given the ASA’s verdict. The advertisement in question shows a woman anxiously waiting for her husband to leave for work and setting the clock ahead so she can rush to the computer and play William Hill online bingo. The Advertising Standards Authority has determined that such a depiction represents addictive gambling patterns where internet bingo play has to be hidden within a relationship.

While William Hill countered by defending their work as nothing more than a funny play on a woman wanting to be left alone to enjoy herself the ASA doesn’t find the reply satisfactory. The legal body maintained that the advertisement was dangerous and could appeal in some way to addictive tendencies in many viewers.
